May 25, 2026: Bill Russell, Drex DeFord, and Sarah Richardson turn the episode into an informal review of Sarah's MIT AI Strategy and Leadership course, and the insights are worth the homework. From the surprisingly perfect parallel between today's AI resistance and the original Luddites, to the counterintuitive finding that the organizations succeeding with AI are the most operationally aligned, not the most technically advanced, this conversation cuts straight to what healthcare leaders actually need to know right now. Lead with curiosity, start with clean data and aligned people, and remember that the real AI differentiator is not automation. It is velocity.
